In addition to the emperor, the queen mother, the queen and the four concubines, there are also princes and nobles.

Old Madam Lu knew that Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Lixi didn't like such activities, but fortunately, it didn't mean that those who met the requirements had to join the parade, so Old Madam Lu waved her hand and let the two children go around by themselves.

Because of the parade of the Queen Mother and the Emperor, several main roads around are strictly prohibited, at this time, even if Gu Jinzhen takes Qiao Lixi out, there is nothing to shop around, the shops are closed early, and there is not even a pedestrian.

"Are you hungry?" Gu Jinzhen took Qiao Lixi's hand and asked.

Qiao Yixi nodded.

The palace banquet looks bright, but in fact, most of them are cold when they are delivered to the front, and in order to maintain their appearance and not do rude things in front of the nobles, those delicacies that look very good, everyone only symbolically moves the chopsticks, and there is not much to really eat in the mouth.

The two withdrew from the procession, and under the leadership of the official, went to the side road, and finally went out of the forbidden street.

The noise behind him is still there, it is the madness of the people who can see the true face of the Son of Heaven, although it is deliberately suppressed, it still can't hide the excitement and madness of these people.

Gu Jinzhen took Qiao Yixi to turn a few corners, and the two went out of the side road.

Compared to the deserted and serious street in the middle, this place has a little bit of popularity.

Qiao Lixi tilted her head and looked at Gu Jinzhen.

Gu Jinzhen explained: "There is a stall selling late-night snacks here, and the wontons are doing well. ”

Qiao Lixi's eyes lit up, but she deliberately teased: "You are not a person with a good appetite, you can actually find such a place." ”

Gu Jinzhen touched his nose and explained: "When I was a child, I accidentally came to eat once, and I remembered that every year when I came back, I would come over to taste it." ”

Qiao Yixi nodded, and the two quickly arrived at the stall.

"General Gu." Gu Jinzhen was wearing an iconic mask, and it was difficult to recognize it.

Qiao Yixi was a little surprised.

The stall owner's attitude towards Gu Jinzhen was respectful and cordial, but he did not have the kind of apprehension when he saw the high-ranking person.

couldn't help but glance at Gu Jinzhen more.

Gu Jinzhen chose a position in the middle, let Qiao Yixi sit down first, and sat opposite her.

"General Gu, this is the future Mrs. Gu, right?" The stall owner asked familiarly.

"It's my daughter-in-law who hasn't passed through the door." Gu Jinzhen wished that everyone in the whole dynasty knew that his daughter-in-law was Qiao Lixi, and he was very satisfied with the stall owner's behavior.

"Mrs. Gu."

“……”

Qiao Yixi didn't answer, and it wasn't if she didn't.

Gu Jinzhen still has a conscience, and said: "Two bowls of clear soup wontons." ”

Seeing Qiao Yixi pouting, Gu Jinzhen said funny: "Don't eat so spicy at night, it hurts your stomach." ”

Shuzhou people like to eat spicy, even Gu Jinzhen herself likes to eat spicy.

Qiao Yixi didn't refute, but glanced left and right.

It's a makeshift stall, in a sheltered corner of the corner, and the location is good.

The boss and the proprietress acted quickly, one was responsible for cooking, the other was responsible for the ingredients and side dishes, and soon the chaos of the two sea bowls was served.

"Shrimp?" This was beyond Qiao Yixi's expectations.

The stall owner said with a smile: "Every time General Gu comes, he either orders spicy flavor, or this shrimp flavor, I don't know if Mrs. Gu likes it or not." ”

Seeing the stall owner looking at him worriedly, Qiao Yixi scooped one with a spoon, handed it to his mouth and blew twice, took a bite gently, and his dark eyes suddenly lit up, "Well, it's delicious." ”

"It's good if Mrs. Gu likes it." The stall owner breathed a sigh of relief.

"Old man Huang has more than 30 years of craftsmanship, how can he do it without some real kung fu."

Qiao Lixi was a little surprised, "Lao Huangtou's business should be very good, why don't you open your own shop?" ”

The stall owner, who was called Lao Huangtou, explained with some embarrassment: "In order to increase some income before, the grass people and their daughter-in-law set up a chaos stall here at night. It's close to the warehouse, and they all do hard work, and when they do night work, they often come to my place for supper. After coming and going, the grass people also have old customers, and the grass people work in the east house during the day, and the daughter-in-law does some embroidery work or something, subsidizing the family, so that a few children are raised. Watching them marry wives and have children, the grass people and their daughters-in-law are idle, although the life is better than before, we don't need to go to work every day, and our grandchildren and granddaughters don't have to worry about us. ”

Qiao Lixi nodded in understanding.

At first glance, I am not used to entering a state of retirement, so I find something to do on my own.

After eating the chaos, the excitement in front was not over, but Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Yixi didn't have the heart to join in the fun, and the two walked back slowly, during which they met several waves of officers and soldiers who checked their identities.

Because of the iconic character Gu Jinzhen, Qiao Lixi saved a lot of trouble.

On the birthday of the Queen Mother, the whole country celebrated for three days, but there will be no such thing as a parade in the next few days, and Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Lixi's original plan to eat barbecue the next day was also stranded, because the eldest grandmother next to the Feng family of the Dingguo Marquis Mansion arrived in Gufu.

From the moment Gu Jinzhen made up his mind, everyone knew whose daughter he liked, and there had been no movement on the side of the Dingguo Marquis' Mansion, let alone the normal movement of the two families.

Regarding the arrangement of the marriage of the two children, Mrs. Lu and Gu Jingshu are all in charge, and there is nothing to do with the Feng family.

And the Feng family also calmed down, Gu Jinzhen didn't mention it in front of her "carefully", she didn't know, she didn't mean to interfere. Therefore, this appointment has been made, and there has been no movement in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.

Those who are not afraid of things in the capital circle have also set up a special gambling game to bet on whether Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Lixi will marry in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion or in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion.

Everyone knows that the Dingguo Marquis Mansion rebuilt the "Wutong Pavilion", after all, the Feng family is so good at being a person, this kind of thing must be fanfare and make everyone know. It's just that the onlookers don't seem to buy it, Gu Jinzhen hasn't returned to the Dingguo Marquis Mansion to live in these years, and it is even more impossible after getting married, everyone knows that the Feng family must be going to take Qiao Yixi, how could Gu Jinzhen send people to the Feng family?

I don't know if it was because the attitude of Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Lixi last night stimulated the Feng family, she asked the eldest grandmother to come early this morning.

The eldest grandmother knew that the people in Gu Mansion were not easy to deal with, and she also smiled bitterly when she got this task, and she pondered several sets of rhetoric on the way, and waited for the time to have a good fight with Gu Jingshu.

According to the task given by her master, she didn't want to be strong in front of Gu Jingshu, but just showed the attitude of the Feng family.

"Mrs. Qiao, my wife asked the old slave to come, and I also want to ask what you mean, what else do you have in terms of family affairs? This list is the menu listed by my wife, please look at it and see if there are any additions or changes? ”

The Feng clan is so upright?

Naturally, not.

It's just to take this opportunity to explore the valley mansion.

Gu Jingshu took the list, "There is Mrs. Laohou, I'll take a look at the list first, if there is anything that needs to be changed, I will let people know." ”

"Mrs. Qiao also knows that my wife is not treated by Mrs. Lu, before my wife made a special trip to visit Mrs. Lu, and wanted to ask the uncle how to arrange the wedding banquet, but the old lady didn't even say which girl was married to the uncle, and my wife couldn't help it, only until the uncle made up her mind, she knew that it was the girl of the Qiao family. It's hard to be a stepmother, the uncle and the lady have never been close, and the lady has been trying to ease the relationship with the uncle, but because the uncle didn't follow the lady, the uncle has a lot of misunderstandings about the lady. In the uncle's family affairs, the lady is not good at interfering too much, for fear that the uncle will misunderstand something. Fortunately, after the uncle gets married, he will live back to the Hou Mansion, and he will return to southern Xinjiang after the New Year, hoping that through this period of getting along, the uncle's misunderstanding of his wife can be resolved. ”

The eldest grandmother said so much, seemingly inconsequential words, but in fact, the words were to clarify the painstaking and difficult points of the Feng family, and at the same time, she also indirectly told Gu Jingshu that the Feng family really felt sorry for Gu Jinzhen, so they didn't have to worry that Qiao Yixi would be wronged when she entered the door, and the Feng family also felt sorry for this daughter-in-law.

Gu Jingshu was noncommittal to the words of the eldest grandmother, since the Feng family wanted to act, she would cooperate, and her good reputation would not be taken up by the Feng family.

Subsequently, the eldest grandmother mentioned a few words about the arrangements of the Feng family, Gu Jingshu listened very carefully, and made a few suggestions, and the eldest grandmother said that after she went back, she would tell her master.

At the same time, Gu Jinzhen's side also "opened a warehouse to release grain", and the good things obtained over the years, as well as the things rewarded by the old emperor, were continuously sent to the "Wutong Pavilion", and pedestrians on the road stopped to look. Although most of these things are in boxes, there are always one or two boxes that can't fit in, such as the coral jade screen!

The frame formed by the coral, inlaid with a whole screen made of jade!

This is a priceless treasure!

It is said that it is still the private collection of a certain prince in southern Xinjiang, and after being seized by Gu Jinzhen and others, it naturally became Gu Jinzhen's thing.

The red coral only formed four square frames, this alone, in the imperial dynasty is a priceless treasure, the jade screen surface polished according to the coral frame, there are a total of four, each of which is a separate hollow shape, and these leftovers taken out are made into the shape of an octagonal bell, hanging on a few corners of the screen, revealing a thick luxury.

According to the person who escorted these things, this screen was not the most valuable, so it was placed so casually, without any protection, and carried directly into the gate of the "Wutong Pavilion".

How many people secretly scolded Gu Jinzhen for being a loser!

Such a good thing, just carried it all the way so casually, and the money burned so much!

There are also people with many hearts and eyes, and the people who watched Gu Jinzhen gave so many things, although there were rewards from the emperor, but most of them were trophies, it is said that these should be handed over to the emperor first, and then the emperor symbolically left a few things for Gu Jinzhen, so some people wondered if they could borrow this to participate in Gu Jinzhen's copy.

However, he soon denied himself.

Who is Gu Jinzhen, how could he openly hand these handles to the old emperor?

The things he left behind must have been acquiesced by the emperor.
